Introducing the LadyMama No-Makeup Challenge!

What's beneath all the makeup? 

If you're the average women, chances are you've become entirely dependent on the magic wands we call lipstick, mascara and coverup. They are makeup miracles - taking our drap, sleepy faces and awakening them to face the world more confidently.

On the other hand....

Do you ever feel like applying all that makeup is a nuisance? Perhaps you've wondered what it would be like to redefine your image...to go au natural? Are you opening to experimenting with the way you relate to your beauty, your femininity?


TAKE THE LADYMAMA 
NO-MAKEUP CHALLENGE!

LadyMama is looking for women interested in taking an oath to go a certain amount of time (a minimum of 10 days) without wearing makeup. Better yet, we want you to share pictures and blog about it! How do you feel on Day 1, Day 7? Do you cheat a little? What are your insecurities, fears? Does wearing certain colors help your overall look when not wearing makeup? How does your skin feel? How does your soul feel?

ARE YOU BRAVE ENOUGH?*

Sign up by contacting blog@ladymama.org
Take picture of you in typical-day makeup
Stop wearing makeup
Take pictures without makeup
Blog your thoughts and discoveries (with pictures!)
*No-makeup exceptions are reserved for family celebrations

***Everyone who signs up and meets their challenge gets a surprise gift!***

E-mail blog@ladymama.org to get started!

Im sorry to say i wear such little make-up just lipstick really that i cant live without it. It brightens my days and adds a bit of glamor to my not always glamorous life. I love vintage red so i feel like a 1950s housewife in my lipstick and pearls, when really im covered in spitup , glue, and glitter,and peanutbutter, but i do respect your challenge im curious to see how it goes.

mimi, i do it all the time!
like when i gotta get my daughter from school in less than two minutes and i'm barely even dressed!
it's an every-other-day thing, basically. i wont do it for 10 days straight, though - i need the days in between to feel a little more put-together.
